Two years ago i bought the microsoft steal programme for my laptop.
Now i also have a desktop pc but want to know if i can also install a version on that (as it did say it could be installed on up to 2pcs - with only one being a PC).
So if i now install it on my computer can the programmes be used at the same time or not?
If they cant i will have to buy it again for my pc, but i dont want to fork out £40+ if its unneccessay.
I would appreciate nyone who knows more about this.

A laptop is a PC (Personal Computer), assuming you have a licence that covers two machines then there should not be a problem.That gum you like is coming back in style.0

Check the licence terms, but usually a single copy of MS Office can be installed on a "licensed device" and a "portable device" so long as the installation on the portable device is used only by the "single primary user of the licenced device".
You can find the licensing terms for Office 2010 here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=2b37ad5e-dc64-400b-a00d-88d982292b070 -

lol, it's hardly going to be a big issue installing it on 2 places at once.
Only colleges/schools etc are really effected with licensing that much.0 -
